    REScO3 Substrates—Purveyors of Strain Engineering
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Klimm, Detlef; Guguschev, Christo; Ganschow, Steffen; Bickermann, Matthias; Schlom, Darrell G.
    The thermodynamic and crystallographic background for the development of substrate crystals that are suitable for the epitaxial deposition of biaxially strained functional perovskite layers is reviewed. In such strained layers the elastic energy delivers an additional contribution to the Gibbs free energy, which allows the tuning of physical properties and phase transition temperatures to desired values. For some oxide systems metastable phases can even be accessed. Rare-earth scandates, REScO3, are well suited as substrate crystals because they combine mechanical and chemical stability in the epitaxy process with an adjustable range of pseudo-cubic lattice parameters in the 3.95 to 4.02 Å range. To further tune the lattice parameters, chemical substitution for the RE or Sc is possible. © 2019 The Authors. Published by WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim

    Growth and Properties of Intentionally Carbon-Doped GaN Layers
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Richter, Eberhard; Beyer, Franziska C.; Zimmermann, Friederike; Gärtner, Günter; Irmscher, Klaus; Gamov, Ivan; Heitmann, Johannes; Weyers, Markus; Tränkle, Günther
    Carbon-doping of GaN layers with thickness in the mm-range is performed by hydride vapor phase epitaxy. Characterization by optical and electrical measurements reveals semi-insulating behavior with a maximum of specific resistivity of 2 × 1010 Ω cm at room temperature found for a carbon concentration of 8.8 × 1018 cm−3. For higher carbon levels up to 3.5 × 1019 cm−3, a slight increase of the conductivity is observed and related to self-compensation and passivation of the acceptor. The acceptor can be identified as CN with an electrical activation energy of 0.94 eV and partial passivation by interstitial hydrogen. In addition, two differently oriented tri-carbon defects, CN-a-CGa-a-CN and CN-a-CGa-c-CN, are identified which probably compensate about two-thirds of the carbon which is incorporated in excess of 2 × 1018 cm−3. © 2019 The Authors.
